Driver urged to come forward after Harrogate collision

Harrogatepolice are appealing for the driver of a car involved in a collision, which left a pedestrian needing medical treatment, to contact them.

It occurred at around 7.30am on Monday 3 February 2014, on Cornwall Road, near the Pump Rooms.

The collision involved a car and a 64-year-old Harrogate man, who was a pedestrian.

As a result of the incident, the pedestrian suffered cuts to his face and grazed arms. He was treated by paramedics near the scene.

I am also keen to hear from anyone who witnessed the collision and ask them to get in touch as soon as possible.
